She went on to say “Madonna’s done it. Britney’s done it. Every VMA performance. Anyone that performs. That’s what you’re looking for–you’re wanting to make history. Me and Robin [Thicke,] the whole time said, you know we’re about to make history right now.”

She also said about her critics, “They’re overthinking it. You’re thinking about it more than I thought about it when I did it. Like, I didn’t even think about it–cause that’s just me.”
